Its architectural diversity led me to scale the rooftops of buildings still under construction so I could capture new angles and fix the outline of the city skyline in my work.
This fascination extended the series to include Shanghai and New York, photographed using a similar process but producing dramatically different works this has inspired an enthusiasm for capturing the architecture of cities and their different personalities and histories. These works were exhibited as part of the series 'Vertigo Cities' in Paris in 2010.
